Buildup of normally harmless enzyme stunts brain growth in mice with Angelman syndrome
Angelman syndrome is a rare disease with a single known cause: one missing gene. The lack of that gene, normally inherited from the mother, occurs in approximately one in 20,000 births and is associated with cognitive and mobility deficits that become …

Brazilian biobank may help personalize cancer prevention in the public health system
A bank of biological samples from thousands of Brazilians could help the Unified Health System (SUS), which is public and free, identify people at higher risk of developing certain types of cancer. In the future, the SUS could offer these individuals m…
